Project description:ChIP-seq data from mouse adipocyte. Mature 3T3-L1 adipocytes were cross-linked with 1% formaldehyde 10 days after induction with MDI. Frozen cell pellets were submitted to the Broad Institute for subsequent analysis of Ebf1-bound regions using anti-Ebf1 antibody (Abnova H00001879-M01).
Project description:EBF1 is essential for B cell specification and commitment. To explore the dynamics of EBF1 initiated B cell programming, we performed EBF1 ChIP-seq, ATAC-seq, bisulfite-seq, RNA-seq and several histone ChIP-seq analyses at different stages of the transition from Ebf1-/- pre-pro-B to pro-B triggered by EBF1 restoration. We also performed Pax5 ChIP-seq in Ebf1-/- pre-pro-B cell and EBF1-restored pro-B cell to study the pioneering function of EBF1 that allows other transcription factors to access certain chromatin sites.

Project description:We used the dTAG protein degradation system to rapidly deplete transcription factor EBF1 in the B cell culture. After treatment with dTAG-13 for 6 hours, we performed ChIP-seq, ATAC-seq, and RNA-seq. After the treatment, EBF1 is completely absent from the chromatin. This leads to the closure of EBF1 binding sites and changes in the target gene expression. This approach allowed us to identify direct targets of EBF1 and show the importance of EBF1 for open chromatin maintenance.

Project description:The C4-12/Flag.ERβ cell line which stably expressed Flag.ERβ is used to study ERβ genomic functions without ERα interference. Mapping ERβ binding sites in these cells reveals ERβ unique distribution and motif enrichment patterns. Accompanying our mapping results, nascent RNA profiling is performed on cells at the same treatment time. The combined results allow the identification of ERβ target genes. Gene ontology analysis reveals that ERβ targets are enriched in differentiation, development and apoptosis. Concurrently, E2 treatment suppresses proliferation in these cells. Within ERβ binding sites, while the most prevalent binding motif is the canonical ERE, motifs of known ER interactors are also enriched in ERβ binding sites. Moreover, among enriched binding motifs are those of GFI, REST and EBF1, which are unique to ERβ binding sites in these cells. Further characterization confirms the association between EBF1 and the estrogen receptors, which favors the N-terminal region of the receptor. Furthermore, EBF1 negatively regulates ERs at the protein level. In summary, by studying ERβ genomic functions in our cell model, we confirm the anti-proliferative role of ERβ and discover the novel cross talk of ERβ with EBF1 which has various implications in normal physiology. C4-12/Flag.ERβ cells were treated with 10nM E2 for 1 hour then crosslinked with 1% formaldehyde; EtOH treatment was used as control. Crosslinked samples were processed for ChIP-seq and sequenced with Illumina Genome Analyzer II and aligned to hg18. QuEST was used as the peak-calling software, using default parameters recommended to analyze transcription factor ChIP-seq data. The entire ChIP-seq process was performed once on each sample (Vehicle or E2-treated).
